About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living life to the fullest (cliche, but true). Currently travelling the world on a shoestring budget

ABOUT ME

I consider myself a citizen of the world, and I love travelling and seeking new adventures. Two years ago, I decided to take a leap of faith and did my first solo backpack trip. It was a journey that opened my eyes to the world and changed my life. Since then, I have been permanently diagnosed with terminal wanderlust.

PHILOSOPHY

You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am very new to this couchsurfing community and I have never surfed before and would love to be hosted.

I wish to meet more couchsurfers and share our travel and life experiences!

Interests

Travelling (duh!), experiencing new cultures, meeting new people. I love the sun and sea. Also, I wouldn't mind hiking a hundred miles just to catch an amazing sunset.
